Topic: Chrome Blocked Download (Read 17617 times)

While attempting to download the CleanMem execute file, I got a message that Chrome had blocked it because it may affect my browsing experience. It says I can dismiss it but thought I'd ask for some feedback first. I apologize if this issue already exists in the forum but I couldn't find it.

Chrome blocks any exe that doesnt have a digital certificate, which a programmer has to pay for yearly. So since cleanmem doesnt have a digital cert chrome blocks it. Chrome is the only one that does this and it is a bad design, but I can see why they do it, viruses are 99% of the time never digitally signed.

You can download a zip file though and there is no problem, it is only exe files. You can disable that feature in chrome or you can use another browser to grab the file
